Abstract :
We propose a motion adaptive sensor for image enhancement and wide dynamic range sensing. The motion adaptive sensor is able to control integration time pixel by pixel. The integration time is determined by saturation and temporal changes of incident light. It is expected to have high temporal resolution in the moving area, high SNR in the static area, and wide dynamic range. We have fabricated a prototype and show some results obtained by our experiments
